Amazon Alexa is the voice service that powers devices like the Amazon Echo. With Alexa, you can do everything—turn your lights on and off, play your favorite songs, and order a pizza just by speaking to it! In this session, you'll learn how to easily create a new Alexa Skill service without the need to manage any server infrastructure. By combining AWS services such as AWS Lambda, Amazon DynamoDB, and the Alexa Skills Kit, we’ll create a new skill, test it, deploy it, and show you how you can start adding your own capabilities to Alexa.

GOTO is the enterprise software development conference designed for team leads,
architects, and project management and is organized for developers, by developers.
As software developers and architects ourselves, we wanted to craft the ultimate
conference.

The result is a high quality conference experience where a tremendous amount of
attention and investment has gone into having the best content on the most important
topics presented by the leaders in our community, staged in an intimate environment
needed to support as much learning and networking as possible.
